Cambridge Women Tours

Cambridge Women Tours offers guided experiences led by knowledgeable Cambridge Green Badge guides, highlighting the significant contributions of women in shaping the university, the town, and the broader world. From the founders of historical colleges to pioneering women in science, the tours uncover the rich yet often overlooked history of women's achievements at Cambridge.

The tours also address the challenges faced by women, including the university's late recognition of women's degrees and the enforcement of laws that targeted women in public spaces.
